Portfolio Building

 This was a super fun shoot!!  The model Kelly Nguyen is a smart and talented college student. She was doing the shoot for her agency M Model Management so that she could build her portfolio since there wasn't much in it yet.  The photographer Joseph Graph was super fun to work with too!! We spent the day changing looks and practicing moves and listening to Skrillex to get in the mood. LOL I think at the end of the day everyone was happy and so was her agency because they used a photo from the shoot for her portfolio!! Mission accomplished :)

Makeup for All

So I have been super busy working on all kinds of photoshoots!!  Sorry I have slacked off on my blog!!!
I am going to start where I left off and keep adding posts untill I catch up!!

So as some of you know I spent about 6 weeks in an intensive training class for my makeup career.
I'm happy to say that I have completed that course and am ready to move on to actually making something out of it!!

Here are some photos from one of the photoshoots that I worked on....


I did the makeup for both the female and male model for this shoot.

Tip of the Week... Weddings

Wedding season is around the corner! So while most women would love to have their makeup done professionally its understandable in this economy that some of you are choosing to save dollars and do it yourselves. So here is one tip that is extremely important ! 

While there are so many different brands and formulas of foundations to choose from you could get lost trying to decide. So first of all make sure your foundation is NOT mineral make-up. The minerals in these products will reflect from the flash of the camera causing the skin on your face to be whiter then the rest of your body!  Other ingredients that cause this include SPF, titanium dioxide, mica, zinc, paba.

Read the ingredients!! If your unsure of a certain ingredient look it up. 

Every woman wants to look the beautiful especially on
their wedding day so be aware of what your using!!

You can always ask questions if your unsure :)

Congratulations and cheers!!!
